Just a short picture post for tree Tuesday of a monkey puzzle tree. This tree is native to Chile and Argentina but there are a few around town that seem to be doing just fine.
Monkeys have a hard time climbing on it because of the sharp spiny leaves, hence the name.
The tree is very interesting to look at, and described as a living fossil. The seeds of the tree are very tasty but it takes many years before the tree is mature enough to produce them. Many evasive species are eating them, you can read more about it at: The Monkey Puzzle Tree Faces More Threats Than a Barrel of Monkeys

I just had to add a recent sunset picture I took. There are some more native trees silhouetted on the islands and land by the bay. I always like the look of the water in this area, the tide comes through a narrow passage way and creates a number of whirlpools. It can be dangerous for small boats. This is taken from a moving car.

Thanks for reading! I always value your support and comments. The pictures were taken by me with my Galaxy S7 with cropping and resizing using GIMP. Tree Tuesday was started by @old-guy-photos
Wow ! very nice and amazing photo shoots with beautiful natural Monkey Tree scenes .I personally liked it thanks for sharing @lightsplasher
have a nice day.

The seeds of the tree are eaten and the wood is used too. I think they take a long time to get old enough to make seeds and cones.

I have never seen a monkey tree before! How interesting that it has no leaves, or has it shed its leaves for the season? I can see that the others have no leaves either so it must be after the season.
What do the seeds taste like? I am pretty sure if I were a monkey, that would look pretty tempting to me!

That article talks mentions logging as one of the reasons for a drop in Monkey Puzzle Trees in their native habitat. I cannot imagine logging and handling a monkey puzzle tree. They must not have anyone stacking branches into slash piles, lol. Yikes!
I enjoy seeing monkey puzzle trees here in the Pacific Northwest. I usually yell out, "Monkey Puzzle!", whenever I see one, whether I'm alone or not! I sure would like to try the seeds, but I haven't ever found any -- yet!

I've never seen the seeds or cones yet either but I haven't been looking for them. They are not native to the area so I guess that most of the trees have been more recently established.
